The Company revamps the vehicle altogether with terrific engine configurations and 6 massive tires, instead of 4. The Raptor Hennessey burns an immense hole in the performance-hungry rider’s pockets but slams a mean machine which is beyond compare

The Hennessey is no joke for seriously contending the likes of Mercedes Benz G63 6*6 version with more off reading capabilities.
